building with atlas version of blas and lapack

building with atlas version of blas and lapack

I'd like to build R using my optimized blas and lapack libraries. It seems
know matter what I do, the configure script uses the blas supplied with the
source. My blas and lapack libraries are in /usr/local/atlas/lib. How can I
get configure to use these?

Looks like the list-server didn't like whatever gmail does to the
formating. Sorry. So here's my post in plain text:

Re: building with atlas version of blas and lapack

Flags should be
--with-blas="-L/usr/local/atlas/lib -lf77blas -latlas"
I guess, because /usr/local/atlas/lib is not found unless some
environment variables have been set. This is documented in the R
Installation and Administration manual, so you probably overlooked it.
